The Colorado Eagles stayed local with their latest signing Tuesday, bringing back Fort Collins native A.J. Hau for the 2013-14 season.

Hau first played with the Eagles in 2010 when the team still played in the CHL, a year that saw Colorado capture a conference championship. He played in first full season in the ECHL in 2012-13, putting up 7 points in 27 games.

In his career with Colorado, Hau has scored 16 points in 67 games.

"Individually, I have a lot to prove this year. I think the same goes for us as a team, I think we feel that we have something to prove to the rest of the league this season," Hau said in a release. "I'm excited for it, there's nothing like a good challenge."

Before playing with the Eagles, Hau played club hockey at Colorado State as a member of the Northern Colorado Youth Hockey program and eventually became the team' captain. The 6-foot, 190-pound forward also played with the Laredo Bucks of the CHL, scoring 12 goals in 2011-12.
